Pro-Installer FAQ
What's the maximum door height?
Standard configuration fits doors up to 36X84. Top and bottom rod lengths are field-adjustable. For doors exceeding standard height, verify rod lengths before ordering.
How loud is the alarm?
The exit alarm produces approximately 100dB at 3 feet — comparable to a car horn. Loud enough to deter and alert without causing hearing damage for brief exposure.
What cylinder does this require?
Standard 1-1/8" mortise cylinder. Compatible with most major manufacturers — Schlage, Yale, Sargent, Corbin Russwin. Match your existing keyway for master key integration.
